Folks,

check out the gallery our member from Norway Paalpot just finished his 52 Wasp custom and it looks nice. Pictures tell the story of how much work.

Nice job..

Congratulations to have a such nice car and be a member of that club.
In Sweden we have a Hudson club that is falling to sleep Crying or Very sad

WOW! There are some really nice cars in your club, Paul. Now we know what you guys (and your wives) do during winter...restore cars. Very Happy

When the nice weather returns, maybe the Hudson club in Sweden will wake up. Laughing

That club seems pretty well organized I like the fact they have a club house that seems pretty cool.

Paalpot do you guys have to pay membership fees to be part of the club. How do you raise money?

All members have to pay about 100 US$ a year in membership fee. also every member have to sign up for at least 1 share certificate (about 1000 US$) like a joint-stock company, last year we arranged a carshow, and of course a lot of voluntary work.
Hope my english is understandable. Laughing

Thanks Paul

Paul,

Can you tell us more about the share certificates? Yes, your English is very good. Smile

I am impressed your club is setup nicely. I can think of a club that Dave and I know that could learn a thing or too about running a club from you guys.

You got that right. So many car clubs here are so far behind the times, it's no wonder the younger crowd isn't interested in them and the older ones are tired of the same old business as usual. Positive change is good, people need to embrace it.

Beautiful Work Paul!

If that is your first custom, you should quit your day job and go into business building American Iron! Any particular reason for using the 318? (not criticizing, just curious)
